Blood circulating in extracorporeal circuit of the apheresis sets has a contact with an artificial surface. The data on the influence of plateletpheresis on fibrinolytic activity are very limited and difficult to interpret. The aim of our study was to estimate the effect of plateletpheresis on the activation of fibrinolysis. Plateletpheresis was performed in 17 healthy blood donors using continuous-flow cell separator COM.TEC (Fresenius, Bad Homburg, Germany). Before and after plateletpheresis, blood samples were taken and markers of fibrinolysis (PAP, t-PA, PAI-1) as well as factor XII activity have been measured. We observed statistically significant decrease in t-PA and factor XII activities after plateletpheresis. There were no significant changes in concentrations of t-PA, PAI-1 and PAP as well as PAI-1 activity after plateletpheresis. Plateletpheresis performed by COM.TEC cell separator has very little, if any, effect on the activation of fibrinolysis. The mechanism of the inhibition of t-PA activity needs further investigations.
